This delicious basmati rice dish is seasoned with a unique masala made from dry-roasted smoked Chipotle Morita chili peppers. Tamarind, jaggery, ghee, and roasted peanuts round out the flavors. Serve this as a side dish, or as a main dish with added vegetables and protein of choice. You can reduce the heat (spiciness) of the masala by halving the chili pepper and removing the seeds before pan-toasting.

Tamarind-Ginger Grilled Chicken Thighs
Tangy and slightly sweet, these finger-licking chicken thighs are so easy you’ll go back to them time and again. For the marinade, we’ve used A Date with Tamarind Chutney for a little sweetness, but feel to use straight tamarind paste if you prefer a stronger tart flavor. The tamarind-ginger marinade is also great with tofu, summer squash, onions, peppers, and sweet potato.

Natto Potato Salad with Tangy-Tamarind Dressing
This unique potato salad comes in response to customer requests for using our freeze-dried natto and tamarind paste in recipes. We thought it would be a great idea to subdue the texture and mellow the flavor of the natto into some favorite dishes while turning up the pizazz at the same time with tamarind paste. For those who are hesitant about the texture and flavor of natto, but want the gut-health benefits, this salad would be a great start! Remember to prepare the natto ahead of time as instructed on the package. Although we did not peel the potatoes, feel free to do so once cooked and cooled enough to handle. The peel should slip off easily.
